I always seem to play better with people I don't know, I think it's because with my regulars we get pretty competitive so I try too hard.

Just today my buddy and I went out as a pair behind a couple of slower groups of 4, no one behind us for the first 8 holes. My buddy left after 10 because it was slow and he had to get to work so I played as a single until two older ladies caught up to me at 14 and we joined up to finish since we were waiting together anyway. I felt more relaxed, drives started hitting fairways and I enjoyed the last 5 holes with them. My scores showed it going par, birdie, bogie, bogie, par, which was a complete turn around from all the doubles and a few triples up to that point. I need to start playing with older ladies all the time haha.
